Form VI: Niman

The predominant, "standard" form common in the prequel era, it balances the emphases of the other forms with overall moderation, in keeping with the Jedi quest for peace and balance. It is considered the "diplomat's form," as it is less intensive in training requirements, allowing a Jedi to concentration on other arts of negotiation. In practice, Form VI is a combination and distillation of Forms I, III, IV and V. In earlier years, young Jedi would study Form I for a few years, and then devote a year or two to the study of III, IV and V. Form VI, by contrast, requires ten years of study after Form I. While its advocates point to the fact that it includes elements of the other forms, it detractors feel that ten years is insufficiently demanding given the end results: almost all the Jedi at the Geonosis arena who favored Form VI were killed. It was also known as the Way of the Rancor and the Moderation Form.
